I have the washers needed for the front coils to add an inch. Anybody who has done this, Any special tools, can I just use adj. wrench? And to get the coils out; just step on axle?

i havent done it. but i assume its the same steps as installing the spacers. youll need other tools than just an ads wrench. and if you take everything loose that your supposed to the coils will really just fall out. if not you can put a little down pressure on the beam (paying attention to the brake line if not loose) to spin the coil out.

Remove the sway bar links if you still have them, remove the brake caliper, undo the shock, and let the beam hang. You will need an 1 1/8" socket and a bunch of extensions or an 1 1/8" box end wrecnh to get the lower coil retainter nut off. Soak it down ahead of time with some penetrating lube.
